Does anybody know when Samsung is going to allow to distribute apps for Gear Fit 2?
I heard from my friend that 3rd party developers are not allowed to distribute apps for GF2?
Is that true? If yes, WHY? It is very good hardware but only with a few apps on the board!
It is ridiculous.
Makes no sense to ask samsung here. The terrible customer Support are one reason why i return this device

Yeah, they clearly outsource their CS it seems. Trying to report a bug on the official forums gets you a "read the manual" canned reply and then a "are you sure you're wearing it correctly" canned reply, despite giving them every ounce of testing info to fix the bug, all they have to do is pass it on.
One thing Microsoft did good with the Band is having their developers on Reddit and UserVoice to reply directly.

Maybe everyone should ask Samsung about apps for Gear Fit 2?
It is easy: open Samsung Galaxy Apps -> Settings -> Help -> Contact us
Without soft, I consider to return back my Fit 2, however it is perfect hardware.

Galaxy note has nfc chip so I downloaded google wallet from the market. I couldn't find it in the market app so I found it from browser. The problem is when I try to open it, it doesn't open and tell me that I have incompatible device. Is there any way that I can use google wallet? Do I have to root the device?

NFC in the AT&T Note has been disabled. We have the hardware in the phone but it will take some time for our Dev's here to figure it out. So it will be down the road a bit before we can use Google Wallet.
Thank you for the information

I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but I'm really losing my patience with this nfc diabling stuff ATT is pulling on all their phones. We paid for the hardware. Even if they don't want to include any nfc capable apps, they could at least ship it enabled.

it's more of a safety thing right now. anyone can scan your phone through your pocket and take credit card info and other person information.
Makes no sense to me. I don't care about wallet but i want to use the programmable disks.

That excuse was fine at first, but there are other cool things you can do with nfc that don't involve credit cards at all.

Yeah like opening doors with the swipe of your phone or going thru security check systems without having to look for/wear your ID on you.
But how many buildings/offices have that technology as of yet?
Still useless technology if you live in the States.. minus the new Google wallet feature..
unlike Asia and Europe they been using NFC for some time now..

A company I worked for in Nashville used RFID chips in our id's to get into the building. It worked very well.

Even when NFC is enabled we wont be able to use google wallet unless you spoof build.prop to a nexus device. Those are the only ones that will work with the app correctly. NFC is far from useless otherwise though. I just got a bunch of black NFC tags to start writing my own for my skyrocket and once we get NFC enabled on the note. I will have one on my car dock to turn off wifi, turn on bluetooth, turn up volume, and open a car dock app. All without toughing the phone
That's odd Canadians already have nfc enabled. One of our banks here let's us use it.

Yeah I flashed a Rogers based tomorrow on both my skyrockets which enabled nfc but still no Google wallet. It seems it's just Att that decided to disable it for now. I'm ok with it till a Canadian rom is built

I'd bet cash money that if the iPhone came with NFC not only would it be enabled but AT&T would actively promote it.

Not only would they promote it, but Apple will quickly claim it's a great new innovation of theirs, and promptly sure every other manufacturer for violating their patent on it's implementation.

While I like S-Notes, I am really disappointed that it doesn't have on the fly shape to text conversion. I know it does but its two extra steps but then if it is wrong, more buttons to click and if in meetings its not really user friendly enough to keep up. I found this app and its fast laid out really well and it does real time shape to text conversion. Its not cheap, I think it was like $7 bucks but its worth it.
The same people do MyStylus Beta which I used to write this.

I would be careful with this company. For the Note 10.1 (P8000), the program was only available in the Samsung store for that tablet. I obtained the app there.
Meanwhile the app is not available in the Samsung store anymore, my paid license is treated as invalid and if I would like to continue to use my paid software at present time, I would have to buy it again in the Google play store.

I'd blame samsung for having a poor makeshift appstore rather than blaming the company.

A company should never forget the user with a valid paid license. Removing the app from the Samsung app store results in obvious problems for the users. And it was a decision of the company to restrict their app to the Note 10.1 and the Samsung app store.
I got contacted for a focus group next week for Gear Fit, Gear Neo and Gear 2 in LA. Did one of these last year for my original Gear so it looks like Samsung is continuing to listen to owners. Wanted to pass this along the incentive pretty much covers the purchase price and great way to help things improve.
The guy said I could pass this along and his name is Jairo at 818.530.1004.

I would write an email to this guy and ask him to tell his company not to Limit their products for Samsung phone's only... it will bite them back! I mean why would you do that? You wanna use the android OS but you wont share the joy for other devices then f 0ff you know?

Unbloating is easy. Root and uninstall the AT&T apps. Or freeze them.
As far as cooks- how about you start learning how to do it? I've taken my time as a short-order Android cook and let me tell you, nothing becomes more annoying than posts like this without an offer to help. You got an awesome, albeit proprietary, device. Proprietary devices ALWAYS see less development. :good:

Look. If you want to be a bitter and sad little person, go do it somewhere else. This forum isn't an outlet for your petty self validation.

theire in the kitchen making food.
what is it you wan't to get out of this question in dev section?
it seems like no "rom maker" got this device, even if it's a smart one
Just wondering: since this device sells with at&t, is the bootloader locked in the pad phone x? Thanks.
samsung fanboy come here and cry lolzzz
While I have zero chef skills, with these going for $200 unlocked on ebay, maybe we could donate $20 a pop to get one for a potential chef. I'd even offer up some ProClip car mounts at my cost to help the cause. I won't complain since I know how time consuming it is and people already have their personal devices and usually one or two more they support. For $200 though, this seems like great piece of kit to have as a backup/toy to play with, especially with a real keyboard dock.
Just bought mine yesterday and hope to bring some development to this device.

News that samsung will be forcing returns by deactivating devices. Unconfirmed.

Yup. Apparently you can't believe everything posted on reddit.

I mean if they do it will help any flight issue in the future. Otherwise they be like you got a NOTE7 ? TURN IT OFF!!
Blocking phones does not stop them from being used or charged just the option to make phone calls and sms.

I was thinking this. The only way they could legally do this is if they had supplied you with a new phone or refunded you and you hadn't sent the old one back. Samsung don't rent a phone to you!

Not if it becomes an official recall you can't just ignore it. Legally speaking anyways you are not supposed to and all responsibility would fall on you if you ignored it.
But it's not that type of recall yet.
Disabling would be pretty unprecedented I think. Not sure on legality.
